High-Waisted Menstrual Brief Provincial blue

The Marie FIL menstrual brief looks like a regular pair of women's underwear, except that it is perfectly designed for periods. Indeed, this feminine menstrual protection allows women to lead an active life every week of the month... And all while being an eco-friendly alternative!

Menstrual panties made in Quebec

Discreet lining in natural fibers

An absorbent lining is already present in the menstrual underwear to create a natural barrier for the panty. Although insufficient without a menstrual insert, it helps prevent unexpected leaks. The lining acts as a soft panty liner integrated into the menstrual underwear. It is longer at the front and back than standard sewing templates to ensure perfect protection.

The lining is offered in two colors. Natural (color natural unbleached): for sensitive skin or prone to infections which allows you to see menstrual flow. Black: For easier maintenance since persistent stains are not visible.

Breathable, waterproof barrier inside the period underwear

A breathable, waterproof barrier sewn inside the underwear is made of a thin layer of 100% PUL. This makes the menstrual underwear invincible to any blood leaks that might try to pass through it.

Light or heavy flow for menstrual panties?

The menstrual underwear adapts well to all flows. For more comfort, women with a heavy flow may prefer wearing a Diva Cup cup ou d'un menstrual disc. For a light to medium flow, the period panties with 3 inserts are sufficient for daytime use. The insert also allows you to change only the interior without having to change the underwear during the day.

Removable menstrual insert

It is possible to add a removable insert to the panties to easily adapt to the menstrual cycle:

• One insert for day or night Marie string (optional) :
  • Ensure a double absorbent and waterproof protection thanks to its composition identical to the gusset of the menstrual underwear.
  • Attaches with snap fasteners (super thin, you won't feel them, we promise!), to stay securely in place no matter the activity.
  • Interchangeable as many times as you want throughout your menstrual flow.

Porting the Marie fil period panties means choosing to be comfortable and feel good in your skin, whether you have your period or not. And together, more than ever, we’re helping make an important eco-responsible gesture for the environment. 💚

Why choose hemp?*

Hemp is the future for the environment. Its processing requires
very little water and no chemicals. That's why Marie prefers hemp to bamboo. This fabric also has several properties:

• Antibacterial to limit odors
• Hypoallergenic to eliminate irritation
• Maximum absorbency
• Soft when blended with cotton

Choose the right size for washable menstrual underwear:

Buying period underwear online can be tricky. Every woman deserves a proper fit and to feel comfortable during her period. Here are some tips regarding the Marie fil size chart.

Size chart for Marie fil menstrual panties

Order the right size of menstrual underwear by measuring your hips, above the buttocks, using a tape measure held parallel to the floor. If you’re between two sizes, choose the larger one. Periods often come with a bloated or sore belly.
